I have a couple people that I just don't schedule time with anymore and I'm happy to have a name for them. I feel like modern communication devices make it way too easy to not live up to the commitments we've made with people.
Dude. My wife and I ditched the kids with her sister of New Years to go to a casino, something we never do and aren't exactly into, long story, but we had a fucking blast together. But lemme tell ya something, amigo. The place was crawling with multi-child families when it wasn't crawling with lookalikes from the cast of the Dangerous Nights sketch from I Think You Should Leave. I can't imagine a more menacing place to bring kids. There's plenty of kid-friendly stuff to do there but it's also swimming in booze and the generally bad vibes of slot machines and table gambling. I was stunned. I'd have jumped from the roof if my parents ever brought me to place like that.
Haha flat-leavers! Never heard of this but going to adopt. I distance myself from such people, though I can sometimes flake out, usually because I’m just too tired, but I always try to be honest about the reason why and I apologize for my apparent inability to “adult” and manage my own energy and schedule. Fascinating read none the less!

That's what I get for trying to edit at the last minute!
"I end up making friends with the people I" got cut off.
I end up making friends with the people I know are reliable, because we value each other's time.
